finding truth of seller location/actual seller
I regularly buy items from sellers who seem to misrepresent who is supplying an item. For example, I receive an item from Amazon or WalMart and yet nothing on the listing mentions this and the item usually originates from a completely different location from what the listing shows. This is deception, in my mind, as these sellers are acting as third parties and also misrepresenting where the item is originating. Sometimes I choose a closer item as I would receive it sooner but with the existing, failed 'Located in...' system, I have no idea where an item is located. This feature should either mean something or be eliminated.
I also avoid big companies, if possible, so being completely unaware who the real seller is makes this impossible.
Any thoughts?
